  Provided, That the Department is authorized to provide com-
munity and residential service programs similar to those provided
to mentally retarded persons to substantially handicapped
epileptic, cerebral palsied, autistic, and other developmentally
disabled individuals whose treatment and training needs
approximate those of the mentally retarded. Eligibility for
services shall be determined by the Department. It is the intent
of this provision that the Department not duplicate other State
agency programs or develop service modalities which normally
would be considered to be the legal and programmatic mandate of
another State agency.
  Provided, Further, That a part of the amount appropriated in
this section under Program "Community" for "Contractual Services"
may be expended for the operation of the day care centers.
Expenses of center operations shall be provided on a 75% State
(including Federal)--25% local matching arrangement.
  Provided, Further, That by reason of increased reimbursement
rates and because additional beds and individuals are certified
eligible the amount of Title XIX funds may exceed that indicated
in this Section. In this event, the additional funds will be used
by the Department to achieve certification of those beds which
still fail to meet Title XIX standards. Any funds used for
permanent improvements will require the approval of the Budget
and Control Board and the Joint Bond Review Committee.
  Provided, Further, That after July 1, 1981 the Department of
Mental Retardation may expend, if necessary, State appropriated
funds for Fiscal Year 1981-82 to cover fourth quarter
expenditures incurred in Fiscal Year 1980-81, necessitated by the
time lag of Federal reimbursements.
  Provided, Further, That within the funds provided herein the
Director, Mental Health Department and the Director, Mental Re-
tardation Department shall jointly consult, study and report to
the General Assembly not later than December 31, 1981, on the
subject of treating persons who are both mentally ill and
mentally retarded; the purpose being to provide the General
Assembly with a report outlining the scope of the problem in
South Carolina and a prospectus for dealing with the problem.
  Provided, Further, That any unexpended balance on June 30,
1981, not to exceed $800,000, in the Appropriation for the
Department of Mental Retardation may be carried forward and
expended in fiscal year 1981-82 for the purpose of partially
replacing the loss of Title XX funds in Community Programs.

agency of any costs claimed by the Department of Social Services
shall be submitted to the State Auditor, the House Ways and Means
Committee and the Senate Finance Committee, within five days of
receipt of such actions.
  Provided, Further, That "any public providers" operating under
an agreement or contract to provide Title XX services, shall
transfer to the Department of Social Services funds in the amount
of 5% or other percentage determined to be appropriate based upon

under this provision shall be deposited to the General Fund of
the State to reimburse the General Fund for appropriations

assessed for its apportionment.
  Provided, Further, That after July 1, 1981 the Department of
Social Services may expend if necessary state appropriated funds
for fiscal year 1981-82 to cover fourth quarter federal program

  Provided, Further, That any family which qualifies under the
federal program "Aid to Families with Dependent Children" as ad-
ministered by the State Department of Social Services may be

eligible recipient within ninety days of such notice.
  Provided, Further, That the Commissioner of the Department or
his designee shall approve all out-of-state travel for the
Department.
  Provided, Further, The Department of Social Services shall
recoup all refunds and identified program overpayments and all
such overpayments shall be recouped in accordance with
established collection policy. Such recoveries and refunds may be
deposited in the proper current operating accounts of the
Department and may be expended for the same purposes as
originally provided. However, the funds collected under the Child
Support Enforcement Program (Title IVD) which are state funds
shall be remitted to the State Treasurer and credited to the
General Fund of the State.
  Provided, Further, That the status of all audits conducted by
the Department of Social Services shall be submitted to the State

  Provided, Further, That the names of persons benefiting from
assistance payments under the several programs of the Department
of Social Services shall be available to other state agencies, if
not in conflict with federal regulations.
  Provided, Further, That from the appropriation made herein for
General Assistance, the Department may elect to supplement the
income of individuals who reside in licensed residential care
facilities and who either qualify as aged, blind or disabled
under the definitions of Public Law 92-603, U. S. Code, or who
would qualify except for income limitations. The Department may
elect to supplement the income of the above defined group up to a
maximum of $380.00 per month. The residential care facilities are
authorized to charge a fee of $355.00 per month for this defined
group, and the Department will allow an additional $25.00 per
month for the individual's personal needs.
  Provided, Further, That the Commissioner of the State Depart-
ment of Social Services, with the concurrence of the Budget and
Control Board, pursuant to regulations prescribed by him, may
compromise or cause collection to be terminated or suspended on
any debt due the State Department of Social Services. Provided,
however, no such debt shall be waived unless federal law and
regulations permit the waiver of the federal share or federal
financial participation percentage of such debt. Provided,
Further, the Commissioner of the South Carolina Department of
Social Services shall not exercise the foregoing authority with
respect to a claim as to which there has been or is an indication
of fraud, the presentation of such a false claim, or
misrepresentation on the part of the debtor or any other party
having interest in the claim.
  Provided, Further, That notwithstanding the provisions of Act
184 of 1977 as amended relating to child day care facilities, the
department is granted the authority to grant provisional
licenses, provisional approvals and provisional registrations to
new facilities covered under Articles II, III and V of Act 184 of
1977 as amended for a period no longer than a year and to grant
or extend provisional licenses, provisional approvals and
provisional registrations to existing facilities covered under
Articles II, III and V of Act 184 of 1977 as amended but in no
case beyond July 1, 1982.
  Provided, Further, That the Department of Social Services shall
implement the periodic interim payments (H.I.M. 15, Section 2407)

the South Carolina Medicaid program who elect this method.
Provided, Further, That payments shall be made to providers at
least monthly, and adjustments to actual cost shall be made
quarterly.
  Provided, Further, That for the purposes of this proviso the S.
C. Department of Mental Retardation and S. C. Department of
Mental Health shall be considered as hospital providers.
  Provided, Further, That in order to preserve the identification
of agency budget entities within the Medicaid program, the
Department of Social Services shall present budget support
information to the Budget and Control Board, the House Ways and
Means Committee, and the Senate Finance Committee, by line item
with growth in utilization or cost justification for each line
item as appropriate. Further, hospital and long term care
information presented in support of the Medicaid budget request
shall be expressed in terms of the patient days purchased for the
previous complete fiscal year; the estimate of budgeted patient
days for the on-going fiscal year; and the projection and
justification for the target fiscal year. Further, as it relates
to long term care patient days, the Department shall provide
information as to the total number of Community Service long term
care beds available statewide by facility classification
(Skilled/Intermediate); the total number of patient days
purchased by the Medicaid program for the last completed fiscal
year, this information being separately presented based upon
level of care designation (Skilled/Intermediate) and the actual
cost for each total of patient days. Further, for the ongoing
year, any refinement of estimated expenditures for long term care
will be fully explained as it relates to number of patient days
or cost increases.
  Provided, Further, That the Department of Social Services shall
continue to actively develop alternatives to all phases of
institutionalization of Medicaid eligible patients. As cost
savings accrue from cost containment efforts or as additional
funding becomes available to the Medicaid program, it is the
intention of the General Assembly that priority be given to
funding non-institutional care. As a part of this effort, the
Long Term Care Policy Council, established to direct the
Community Long Term Care Project, shall submit a status report to
the Project's Legislative Advisory Committee, the Governor, the
Budget and Control Board, the Senate Finance Committee, the Ways
and Means Committee, the Senate Medical Affairs Committee, the
House Medical, Military, Public and Municipal Affairs Committee
and the Health Care Planning and Oversight Committee by September
1, 1981. Statewide implementation plans shall be outlined in the
report with associated cost data.
  Provided, Further, That the State Auditor is hereby directed to
develop a plan for adequate audit coverage of the Medicaid
program, Medicaid providers, and any other Medicaid contracts.
Further, The State Auditor is authorized to seek assistance from
any State or Federal agency he deems necessary. This plan shall
be submitted to the Budget and Control Board, the Health Care
Planning and Oversight Committee, the House Ways and Means
Committee, and the Senate Finance Committee.
